5x5 elk found this week

In GMU 328 during deer season. Laying on top of each other.
Is there any way to get the coloration backed after they've been bleached like that?

Dandy set of 5 points, there is something cool about a big 5 point bull imo.

A freind of mine uses American stain and a rag and feathers it out towards the end giving the "ivory tip" appearance. I honestly couldnt tell that he had done anything to them. Looked awesome. Nice find by the way.
